I'm not easily impressed either.

Possibly I'm judging against other sports/hobby forums that have attempted new forums.....and they were (some still are) HUGE blunders. Rivals pulled this one off in an awesome manner.

I know some of you preferred 'thread view'....but if you had (and you do) to use 'topic view' this a great setup to learn it. Truthfully, it's a learning curve for all of us. This forum really is cutting edge.

I'm extremely difficult to please when it comes to technology and the first day I spent on this software I was blown away. I absolutely love them and couldn't be happier.

Thanks for the feedback.

not to be a negative nancy, but on my mobile device these boards are slow.

I actually like the old boards better for that reason. I also dont get the auto spell and correct like i used to.

Still as long as I can read what the good folks on yhis forum post about WVU football, i am good with it.

The speed would definitely have to be due to your browser or mobile connection. We're able to monitor the speed of the boards and this one is much faster. What browser are you using on your mobile device?

The spell correct issue wasn't a feature of the old board it must be something you have on you device. I use Chrome for both my desktops and mobile devices and it offers spell check and replacement...but again that has nothing to do with this site.

Sounds like some things that I can help you with on your end.

I really thought I was going to hate them, simply because I liked the old one so much. "If it ain't broken...". I am really surprised at how much I like the new format. They did a really great job.

We've had no complaints here but a few people on the national boards did use the "if it ain't broken" comment but the thing they didn't understand is that was broken. When Rivals went down over the last several years it was always the boards that brought us down. The code just couldn't handle the load anymore and we couldn't continue to add patches.

Glad you like it!
